To accurately answer the question about how the claims made in the two texts compare, we would need to examine the specific claims and evidence presented in Passage 1 and Passage 2. Without access to the actual content of the passages, we cannot definitively determine the validity or strength of the claims.
However, if one passage provides stronger evidence and reasoning than the other, or if both passages contain valid and effective claims supported by persuasive evidence, then you can select the corresponding response.
If you can provide details from Passage 1 and Passage 2, I'd be happy to help analyze them further.
